| I can freely say that my kid, 13 year old son is one of the smartest kids I have known. I do not say this because he is my son, but because it is true. Yet, I worry for his health. It seems that he had this Cystic Hygroma since the day he was born. Doctors are mentioning surgery but I am frightened with the very idea that he must go under scalpel. Tell me what you know of this condition, please. |

| Well, Cystic Hygroma can be easily removed, if that method is applicable in your son's case. Since he had this abnormal tissue since the day one, there is a slight possibility that it connected with other, normal part of his body. In that case, surgery may not prove as a valid method of treating this condition. In that situation, there are therapies but their effectiveness is yet to be proven. I wish I had better news, but this is it. |
